Another sysprep problem -- Windows Update?

So -- I'm 99% of the way there with my unattend.xml file

But then I realize that the following happens...

Prior to running sysprep, I go into Windows Update and click the "Get
updates for more products" box. This installs stuff beyond the windows
update.


But then I run sysprep and restart the computer (which I now have set
to not prompt me for a user account at startup, so it just boots for 10
minutes and is done.)


But, go back to Windows Update.

It now wants me to "get updates for more products" -- it's not
respecting what I set before sysprep.

Grr...

Anybody see this and know what the workaround is for it?

- Steve

I would guess a complete restart after your updates and then try your
sysprep. Speaking of sysprep, could you send me your xml file (less the
product key of course).
